But according to Hollinger we were actually (I don't believe this) the 11th slowest team in the league. So you factor out those turnovers over a low number of possessions and you get a below-average turnover rate. And surely you remember the playoffs. I don't know. I don't think I'll ever have any real hope for this team until Thad matures to a point where Iguodala's the third banana.

I would simply look at the number of shots taken per game and then look at the number of turnovers. If it is relative to the rest of the league, which I assume it will be, then Hollinger's "stats" are once again, pointless.

I mean, you have to factor in freethrows too, otherwise you're not getting all the possessions. We were only 17th in shots attempted a game, though, so on your method, we'd probably be average to slightly below average.

I remember reading something about Iguodola taking 500 jumpers a day over the summer. Please move that up to 5000...
I hate to say it but if he doesnt develop SOME type of outside game we will have wasted 80 million dollars on a guy who is a good defender and easily wins the in-game dunk contest every night. I dont feel good about that...
I know its only one game but damn...he cant hit an open shot. If hes in the low 30's shooting in 2 weeks I say we are going to have a long painful season. Hes almost lebron-like going to the rim but that wont work all the time. Ask Michael jordan...he didnt become Jordan until he developed a solid outside game. Then he was unguardable. Man I hope this was just opening night jitters...
